Looking at Chi Hang's face, Lin Guyu's eating movements gradually stopped, and unconsciously put the chopsticks in his hand on the table.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Guyu raised his eyes to look at Chi Hang, opened his lips slightly, and his voice did not come out, but Chi Hang understood what Lin Guyu said.
Chi Hang glanced at Chi Ye and Wang Xiaoqian, leaned into Lin Guyu's ear and whispered, "Xu Feng is a little troublesome over there, I'll go over and take a look." โ
"I'm with me, too." Lin Guyu reached out and grabbed Chi Hang's arm and said with a serious face.
"You take care of the fourth brother and younger siblings." Chi Hang looked at Lin Guyu's frowning appearance, and reached out to touch Lin Guyu's brow.
Lin Guyu's brows slowly stretched out under Chi Hang's gentle movements, and he nodded slightly, "Then you should be careful." โ
"Xiaoxue is waiting for you below." Chi Hang naturally withdrew his hand and said softly, "You'll go back with Xiaoxue later." โ
"I know." The corners of Lin Guyu's lips were slightly hooked, and the worry in his eyes was obvious.
Could it be that someone framed the Ji family again?
Thinking of this, Lin Guyu's heart was in a mess, and it was not easy to guess at this time.
Chi Hang left, and after a while, Xiaoxue came up.
"Madam, four masters, four ladies." Xiaoxue said, hurriedly saluting the people at the table.
Wang Xiaoqian's eyes fell on Xiaoxue's body, looking at the beautiful clothes Xiaoxue was wearing, a trace of loneliness flashed in her eyes.
"Fourth brother, Xiaoqian, don't mind Xiaoxue eating with us." Xiaoxue has always followed Lin Guyu's side, if it weren't for coming to the capital, Lin Guyu wouldn't let Xiaoxue learn these messy etiquette at all.
"Third sister-in-law, please." Chi Ye smiled slightly.
"Little Snow Maiden, sit down quickly." Wang Xiaoqian looked at Xiaoxue enviously, Xiaoxue became more and more beautiful, and there was a feeling of small jasper.
"Xiao Er, take a bowl of chopsticks again, and by the way, there will be another bowl of rice." Lin Guyu smiled and looked at the shopkeeper who was standing on the side, and said softly.
"Okay, wait a minute." After speaking, the shopkeeper turned around and left.
Xiaoxue sat beside Lin Guyu, just pursed her lips and smiled, and didn't say much.
After a while, the shopkeeper brought the meal.
While eating, Lin Guyu watched Xiaoxue's movements of picking vegetables, and had some bad premonitions in his heart.
After eating, Lin Guyu separated directly from Chi Ye and Wang Xiaoqian.
Lin Guyu walked slowly towards the Xu Mansion, this road is extraordinarily wide, and there are all high-ranking officials and nobles living here, and there is no market.
"Xiaoxue," Lin Guyu turned his head to look at Xiaoxue beside him, looked at no one around, and asked with a calm face, "What happened, can you tell me?" โ
Xiaoxue looked at Lin Guyu in embarrassment, smiled wryly, walked slowly in front of Lin Guyu, and said hesitantly, "Madam, the slave doesn't know what happened, I know that Ah Jiu said that something big is wrong, so let me come to you." โ
"I see," Lin Guyu said, leaning back slightly, and asked hesitantly, "Xiaoxue, why didn't I know that you could use chopsticks in your right hand?" โ
The expression on Xiao Xue's face in front of her paused slightly, "Madam, have you forgotten that the slave and maid can use chopsticks on their left and right hands." โ
"Then you go ahead and pretend." Lin Guyu looked at Xiaoxue in front of him calmly, and said with a smile, "You look a lot like Xiaoxue, but you are not Xiaoxue after all." โ
Xiao Xue, who was standing in front of Lin Guyu, frowned slightly, and said very innocently, "Madam, what are you talking about, why am I not Xiaoxue, I am Xiaoxue." โ
Lin Guyu didn't speak, walked up to Xiao Xue, looked at Xiao Xue's eyes, and asked calmly, "Why don't I believe such a superb disguise technique?" โ
Xiaoxue in front of her stood quietly in place, letting Lin Guyu look at her without a trace of panic.
There is nothing strange on his face, and this Xiaoxue in front of him doesn't seem to even wear makeup.
Xiaoxue doesn't use chopsticks at all with her left hand, and only eats with her right hand, but she is used to stretching out the four fingers of her thumb and covering the chopsticks by a third.
Because Xiaoxue's eating posture was not good-looking, Lin Guyu told Xiaoxue to ask her to put her fingers away, so that she could eat beautifully.
Xiaoxue has changed her eating posture for more than two years, but her eating movements are still clumsy, and every time she eats meatballs, Xiaoxue uses a spoon to eat, that's because her chopsticks can't hold the balls at all.
The movements of this Xiaoxue in front of her eating are smooth and impeccable.
If it weren't for Xiaoxue's little problem, Lin Guyu wouldn't have found out that Xiaoxue was fake.
Now that he was about to arrive at the Xu Mansion, Lin Guyu wanted to know what this Xiaoxue in front of him wanted to do.
Xiaoxue put her hands in front of her elegantly and calmly, her face was calm, she lowered her head slightly, and her voice was tactful, "I don't know what Mrs. means, I am Xiaoxue, isn't there only one Xiaoxue in this world?" โ
Lin Guyu took advantage of this Xiaoxue not paying attention, and did not hesitate to give her a hand knife.
"Xiaoxue" fell straight to the ground.
If it weren't for the laziness to carry Xiaoxue to the house, Lin Guyu wouldn't have made a move now.
tied Xiaoxue's hands directly behind his back with a towel handkerchief, and then helped Xiaoxue to walk towards Xu's mansion.
When the guards of the Xu Mansion saw Lin Guyu helping a person in, they hurriedly stepped forward and asked hesitantly, "Mrs. Chi, do you want to help?" โ
"Great, please help me bring her to my yard," Lin Guyu said, taking out the money bag around his waist and directly taking out a few taels of silver to the guards.
After taking Lin Guyu's money, the smile on the guard's face became even brighter, and he helped Lin Guyu to help Xiaoxue into the house.
Silver Pine House.
Xiao Xue was wearing a pink dress, looking at the girl on the ground who looked exactly like her, and looked at Lin Guyu in surprise, "Madam, she really looks like me." โ
"Do you really have no sisters?" Lin Guyu raised his eyes to look at Xiaoxue and asked with a serious face.
Xiaoxue walked in front of Lin Guyu, her brows twisted, and finally shook her head gently, "No, my mother is just a girl, I used to have an older brother, but my brother couldn't stand it because of the family's troubles, and then he ......."
At the end, Xiaoxue's voice was a little choked.
Then it is strange who this person on earth is.
"Xiaoxue" on the ground woke up in a daze, only to feel dizzy and groggy, and his neck hurt terribly, and he wanted to reach out to touch his neck, only to find that his hands were tied behind his back.
"Xiaoxue" suddenly came to her senses, immediately sat up from the ground, raised her eyes to look at Lin Guyu and Xiaoxue standing next to her, her eyes lit up.
"Who are you?" Xiaoxue looked at "Xiaoxue" sitting on the ground in confusion and asked.
Xiaohua sat on the chair next to him and made a string, looked at "Xiaoxue" sitting on the ground, looked at it twice, and continued the work in hand silently.
Hearing Xiaoxue ask, "Xiaoxue", who was sitting on the ground, stood up, her legs a little soft.
I was just knocked unconscious, why is my body so soft? The fake "Xiaoxue" looked puzzled.
"You don't have to stand up, the anesthetic in your body hasn't completely disappeared." Lin Guyu said, got up from the chair, and walked in front of the little maid, "I thought you were Xiaoxue's relative, and my subordinates spared your life mercifully, since you are not Xiaoxue's relative, then I will send you directly to the official mansion." โ
"I'm not called Xiaoxue," the fake "Xiaoxue" glanced at Lin Guyu coldly, and his voice was indifferent, "My master asked me to come here to protect you." โ
When Lin Guyu heard the words of the fake "Xiaoxue", the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook, "I'm very good at talking, if you really come to protect me, you still need to dress up as Xiaoxue?" โ
Xiao Xue stood aside, nodded approvingly, took a step forward with palpitations, pulled Lin Guyu back, and whispered, "Madam, you'd better be careful, what if this person does it again?" โ
"My master did ask me to protect you." Fake "Xiaoxue" raised her eyes to look at Lin Guyu, her face was calm, and she raised her head and chest, "My name is Xu Shuqing, and the master just wants to see if you have enough ability." โ
"Are you transfigured?" Lin Guyu's eyes looked at Xu Shuqing's face carefully, and he thought about it for a long time before he could figure it out.
"Yes." Xu Shuqing's voice was crisp and neat, his eyes were sharp, he looked into the distance with cold eyes, and his body stood extremely straight, "Madame is very smart, and my master admires Madame very much." โ
Lin Guyu couldn't make up her mind, if Xu Shuqing wanted to attack her, Xu Shuqing didn't do it when there were so many opportunities outside.
"Untie her." Lin Guyu said, turned around and sat down next to the chair.
Xiaoxue looked at Lin Guyu worriedly, looked at Lin Guyu's affirmative eyes, and then went to untie Xu Shuqing.
Xu Shuqing gently rubbed his wrist, took out a letter from his sleeve, and knelt in front of Lin Guyu with a "plop" sound, his voice was indifferent and simple, "Madam, you can believe Shu Qing, Shu Qing is really here to help you, this is Shu Qing's deed of sale, and he has not yet drawn a pledge, and now Shu Qing is willing to draw a pledge." โ
Xiaoxue handed the letter in Xu Shuqing's hand to Lin Guyu, looked at it carefully, and it was really a deed of sale.
"I'll go back and make sure it's real, otherwise I won't be able to trust you." Lin Guyu said, put the deed of sale aside, and looked at Xu Shuqing with interest, "What do you look like, how can you look like Xiaoxue?" โ
Xu Shuqing raised his eyes and glanced at Lin Guyu, stretched out his hand to tear from the hair, tore all the way to the neck, and tore the clothes slightly, only then did he tear off the entire face, revealing an indifferent face, his narrow eyes exuded coldness, the high bridge of the nose, the thin lips opened and closed mechanically, and the voice was as cold as winter snow, "If you simply disguise your face, it is easy for people to find the wrong place, only by disfiguring the whole face including the neck, all the way to the inside of the clothes, so that people will not find the clues." โ
Sure enough, it was wonderful, no wonder she didn't find the clue, Lin Guyu got up and walked in front of Xu Shuqing, her eyes looked up and down on Xu Shuqing's body, "You keep saying that your master asked you to come over to protect me, who is your master?" โ
